EPL: Oliver Glasner reveals Arsenal player Crystal Palace targeted during 2-2 draw

Daily Post Nigeria EPL: Oliver Glasner reveals Arsenal player Crystal Palace targeted during 2-2 draw Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Sport EPL: Oliver Glasner reveals Arsenal player Crystal Palace targeted during 2-2 draw Published on April 24, 2025 By Don Silas Crystal Palace manager, Oliver Glasner has revealed that his players targeted Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya’s positioning during their 2-2 draw against the Gunners in the Premier League on Wednesday night. Goals from Jakub Kiwior, Leandro Trossard, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta ensured both teams got a point each at Emirates Stadium. During the encounter, Arsenal defender William Saliba gave the ball away in the build-up to Mateta’s goal in the 83rd minute but the Palace striker still needed a brilliant chipped effort to beat Raya, who was caught out of his goal.

Arsenal’s draw against Palace means Liverpool will now be crowned Premier League champions if they secure at least a point against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday. Speaking after the game, Glasner revealed that Raya’s tendency to come far off his line was highlighted to his Crystal Palace players in their pre-match preparations against Mikel Arteta’s side. “We showed the players yesterday when we were preparing the opponent, we showed them that David Raya is high [off his line],” Glasner said.



“It was the third time [in the match] we had this situation – the first one Justin Devenny didn’t recognise it, so we forgot “Adam Wharton had the kick in the first half where he hit Thomas Partey and this would have been quite dangerous. And then we got the third opportunity and JP [Mateta] had this amazing finish,” he said.
